A s.Bear" In The Book Market.

People generally supposed that The
Literary Revolution brought the price
of books down to the very bottom.
The supposition was mistake. Alden
has recently made a reduction all
along the line-a reduction SO great
as to be startling surprise to book
BUYERS, and an amazement to book
publishers! He says continued re-
duction in cost of manufacture and a
continually widening market warrant
it. He says still lower prices are pos
sible ii purchasers can be sufficiently
mul ipIied-it would seem as if he
were bound to make customer of
every one who caa readl Tennyson's
''Enoch Arden" for 2 cents! Guizot's
France AT fine Illustrations reduced
from $34 100 to $3.50, and so on, al
iafnitum! A novel scheme which he
has put forward to tempt book lovers
is ''Provident Book Club" which
secures each member IA 5000 library
for installments of 90 cents month,
or larger library for proportionate
payments. His new 64,page Alpha
biiical catalogue is very wonder i'll

culars of that club are sent free to any

The Winnipeg Sensation.

WINNIPEG, Feb. 14.-Schoield, the
man reported to be murdered and
thrown in the river here yesterday
morning, who has since turned up III
Minneapolis, WAS the subject of con-
yersation everywhere in the city today.
Even politicians ceased wrangling, and
stood aghast. Citizens and police
were engaged all night in cutting the
ice and dragging the river for his body,
and wore a decidedly sheepish express
ion that afternoon that the supposed
corpse had been arrested. 1t appears
that Sch)ield boarded the morning
train at ST. Boniface, a small station
outside the city, in laborers garb,
and thence made his way to the Flour
city. He robbed the safe, disarrang-
ed the office furniture and made a
trail to the river of chickens blood
all as blind, wishing to rid himself
of his wife, with whom it is said he
lived unhappilv Mr.. Schofield will
not believe that her husband is alive
and will probably leave for Mime
apolis in the morning to establish his
identity.

1.-THE Sunny Cline" is the name
of little sheet which found its way
to our sanctum this week. 1t comes
all the way from Sherwood, franklin
county Tennessee, and is a welcome
visitor. Sherwood" was created
through the enterprise Of fow enter
prising Minnesotians, among whom
was ex-governor c. ID. Sherwood, in
whose honor the town was named.
The paper before us thus gives the
the location of the town: Sherwood
is situated in a valley on the western
edge of the grand Cumberland plat
eau at ar elevation of one thousand
feet above the Gulf of Mexico. The
main line of the Nashville, Chatta-
nooga e. St. Louis railway runs thro'
the village, railway doing an i'm
mense business-six passenger trains,
four coaches each, in "a hours and
from Is to 20 freight trains daily-a
direct line from St. Louis to Georgia
and the Carolinas So miles from
Nashville, 50 from Chattanooga. The
village was first laid out a few years
ago by ex-Gov. Sherwood of Mime
sofa, now president Of the Tennessee
Land and immigration company, and
resident of the village, chartered
under the laws of Tennessee.
A few miles from Sherwood is built
the university of the South under the
jurisdiction of the Episcopal church
South.

Abraham Lincoin's SSth birthday

The seventy-eighth birthday of Alb
raham Lincoln was duly celebrated in
New York, by the Republican club of
that city. on Saturday evening, the
18th. The grand dinner at Delmon-
zoos banquet hall was largely attend
ed by many distinguished statesmen.
The Hon James CT. Blaine-who was
not able to be present, in his letter
of regret said, after referring to the
anniversary and paying tribute to
Washington and Lincoln as the two
immortal names in American history:
Your club meets to-day to do
honor to Mr. Lincoln as Republican.
/ was the Republican party that gave
Mr. Lincoln to the nation and sustain
him, step by step, Throughout his ex
tracrdinary career. \ celebration of
Mr.. Lincoln's nane is a celebration of
the Republican party. To that party
he was sincerely attached, to its sue
cess he was entirely devoted, in its
success he found the victorious issue
of every great policy of which he was
himself personal exponent. The
republican party makes no attempt to
narrow the possession of fame that is
recognized on all continents, that will
last through all centuries, that belongs
TO humanity. But the political organ
ization which supported Mr.. Lincoln
has the right to claim the prestage of
his name as it continues to labor in
the great field where he wrought I'M
til all the harvests of his planting
shall be gathered and garnered.
Among the bills introduced in
state senate last week, was one by Mr..
Pond to amend the law relating to
excise and the sale of Intoxicating
liquors. 1t provides that any person
conyicted of being drunk and noisy
shall be fined SO for the first offense,
for the second offense within one year,
s. to So fine, or from fifteen to sixty
days imprisonment in the county Jail !;
and for the third ofPense within one
year, form SO to so fine, or from
thirty days to four months imprison-
ment. Also to amend laws relating
to the exercise and sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors. 1t makes it the duty of
the common council to investigate all
repeated sales of liquor to persons pro-
hibited by law from receiving it. 1t
makes it the duty of the municipal
judges to report all convictions to the
common council and provides fine of
$50 for the conviction of any person
on such investigation.

THE EVANS PARDON.

The San Francisco Chronicle, drawing
its Inspiration from the local Tribune
is very indignant because the President
pardoned Joseph II. Evans. polyg
amist who had served more than two
years of his term of three and half
years. The Chronicle thinks Evans
should have been made to promise
obedience to the law, and to confine
himself to his legal wife, and says: "In
a word, Cleveland has made one of the
plumbers for which he is becoming
noted, blunders that are usually due to
his pig-headed policy of accepting no
advice from those who are well in
formed on the subjects that he is consid-
ering." The blunder in this instance
was made by the Chronicle. Mr.. Evans
ought never to have been sent to the
Penitentiary. He virtually had but one
wife, and she was his legal spouse, when
he was convicted, and had had but one
for a long time before his arrest.
His marital relations were monoga-
nous IN su respects save the technlc-
atty that he had married a second wife
within the period in which prosecu-
ton might be instituted. Besides, he is
70 years of age, and it is not among the
probabilities that he Will ever again
violate the law. The punishment
which he endured was certainly ample
and severe enough for his offense, and
his further incarceration would have
had no influence on others con-
ten plating violation of the
law. His pardon was not only an
act OF justice, but was humane; tin no
manner indicated that the President
was disposed to slacIen the rigor of the
law in the punishment of polygamists,
but did say that Mr.. Cleveland didn't
propose that the Law and the courts
should be vindictive and persecutiye
with b s consent.

CHEAP OFFICIALS.

There are only fourteen States in the
Union which pay their Governors
$1,000 or more a year, or as much as a
first class baseball pitcher receives. In
three Of the States the salary
is $1,000, and only in two
New York and Pennsylvania
is it 5000, or large enough to enable
the incumbent to live decently in the
Office without drawing from his private
purse. The same public parsimony is
displayed in paying judges. Only in
two or three States are the judges paid
salaries which would be accepted by
ordinary accountants, while in many of
the States the Judge struggles along and
tries to make ends meet on from 81 900
to 81 600 year. Even in the great State
of Texas. which has so much money
that it cannot fad good opportunities
for its investment, the Supreme Court
justices receive only $500 year
When one considers the pay which
these officials receive he ought not to
wonder that so many cheap men get
into the governorships and onto the
bench nor be surprisedthat so many bad
decisions are rendered. Cheap judges
have b"en sore affection to tab and to
every other State and Territory which
has than.

The UNITED States Supreme Court
has decided that person out of his
senses cannot be held to a moral or
legal responsibility for his acts, and
therefore an insane person who COM
mits suicide stands before the law as if
his death were the result of an accident.
This decision will materially affect life
insurance companies. The companies
have always tried to void the policies of
those who die byrtheir own hands, but
this opinion should maintain the
liability of the company, as no sane
man, no man in his right mind, ever
commits suicide.

ANOTHER DoSE.

There is another ugly pill for the
local rule-or-ruin gang to swallow, in
our eastern kilograms this morning.
TIE ten Idaho Mormons who were sent
to the Detroit House of Correction to
serve segregation sentences, have been
released On writs of habeas corpus, the
United States District Attorney assent
ing. Chief Justice Hays. of Idaho,
knew that the segregation doctrine was
not good law, but he had been whipped
into the pack, the Utah lash being en-
ployed, and he went against his better
. judgment in prosecuting the Mormons.
The Federal officials in Idaho seem to
be a dependent lot OF fellows. They
look TO those in Utah for inspiration
and direction. The Utah Federal Judge
has only TO take snuff to set the Idaho
bench to sneezing; while the Utah
Distric: Attorney has merely to hint
thing when the Idaho prosecutor swears
to it. The late U. s. Marshal of our
northern neighbor was the veritable
tool OF the Salt Lake ring, doing its
bidding IN all things as completely and
brisklY as the Insignificant Ireland
obeyed it. Now that Chief Justice
Hays has been caught by the
trap into which he permit d
himself to be led against his
better intelligence, perhaps he will
be rSbre manly and independent in
future, relying more on himself and less
on tie Salt Lake ring TO direct him. 1t
is not creditable to judge to have his
work overturned and undone, and it
is q severe reflection on his character as
a judge, when the rulings that are re-
versed display palpable evidence of
partisan hate rather than an honest
misinterpretation of plainly worded
statute. Judge Hays will feel this re-
Duke by the United States Supreme
Court most keenly, as he will recog
nize In it the fact that his reversal
comes from permitting himself to be
used as tool by an INSCRIPTIONS gang,
which has no regard for law or justice
which stands in the way of its wicked
schemes.

MORMON AND LIBERAL.

"Let the facts be submitted to can
did world" If the Mormon is the de
praved creature that the Liberal affects
to believe and endeavors to convince
the world that he is. the fact should be
susceptible of demonstration.
Is it not barely possible that under
the cloak of superior intellectually and
greater sspctity, the Liberal conceals
the real motives of his warfare against
the people of Utah? Is it unholy to sug-
sest that these righteous men who affect
the chief seats in the synagogue, like
scribes and Pharisees of old, are sane
timsnious without sincerity, pedantic
without learning and arrogant without
